clutching the cornershop change
for an orange panda-pop
(couldnt trust my pockets
in my flopsweat palm
(couldnt trust my pockets
cos its proper coins
& thats adult stuff)
i was in shorts
red superman ringer t
i was in shorts
red superman ringer t
& eight or thereabouts
on a street corner
on a street corner
that i now remember
being football pitch big
& i felt then
inside my tiny bones
& unformed strugglepup mind
how absolutely madly immense
our hulking world must be
